Our personal finance program is a workshop-based curriculum designed to equip participants with financial literacy. We thoughtfully designed our lessons to help their fundamental math skills come to life with real-life applications. By incorporating hands-on problem-solving exercises and interactive activities, our scholars will gain valuable experience applying financial concepts to real-life situations, from personal budgeting to understanding debt, saving, and financial independence.

In our seminar courses, we approach real-world problems through the lens of interdisciplinary learning.  By exploring diverse literary works, we inspire our scholars to examine texts from multiple angles, connecting them with broader fields such as history, psychology, sociology, philosophy, science, art, and more. This holistic approach to classroom materials and discussion allows scholars to make larger connections, develop quality arguments, and think critically about each topic covered in class.

At Scholars, we believe in supporting the whole student. Our leadership class explores concepts from self-advocacy and communication to mindfulness and stress management. Leadership classes offer scholars an opportunity to network with industry professionals and learn effective email writing and communication skills and tools to support time management and executive function techniques.
